I'm sorry, but if go would be product of lisp minded people it would be simple language with ability to extend the language on the fly. Reality is in go there is no way to even introduce some nice contract on top of error return and if statements without external preprocessor.

Yeah, Bell Labs never been a Lisp shop, but they developed their own philosophy and make it walk with the Plan 9 project.
